Serialize a PFX to BinData

Demonstrates Pfx.ToBd, which serializes the current PFX contents as PKCS#12 data into a BinData object, using the supplied output password.

Background. This is the in-memory equivalent of ToFile, producing the PKCS#12 bytes for further processing or transport.

Note

This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.

JavaScript

var success = false;

var pfx = new CkPfx();

//  The file path is relative to the application's current working directory.  An absolute path
//  may also be used.  Supply the path appropriate to your own environment.
//  The PFX password should come from a secure source rather than being hard-coded.
var password = "myPfxPassword";
success = pfx.LoadPfxFile("qa_data/identity.pfx",password);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(pfx.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

//  Serialize the PFX contents as PKCS#12 data into a BinData, using the given output password.
var outputPassword = "myOutputPassword";
var bd = new CkBinData();
success = pfx.ToBd(outputPassword,bd);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(pfx.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

console.log("Serialized " + bd.NumBytes + " bytes of PKCS#12 data.");
